[Captivate General] dressanderc:
Hi all, I need some help. I can take a photo with the camera and then select a contact photo from within it, and it turns out fine. However, when I manually push a photo taken from another device (my 8MP camera) and I select a contact photo from within IT, the photo becomes pixelated. Although my brain may be playing tricks on me when I say that, at first, the contact photo doesn't look pixelated, after a while it looks horrible. Does it have anything with my contacts being synced with Google? As they appear to be pixelated on my laptop as well when I access my contacts under my Gmail account. ??????
[Captivate General] Snapphane:
Google compresses the pictures on Google Contacts. Turn off that sync or use Facebook for contact photos :-)
[Captivate General] dressanderc:
I figured something like that was up. However i went under menu>more>accounts>my gmail account and deselected contacts, however all of my phone contacts are still linked with gmail. Argh! Ive rebooted with no success, it seems like the contacts are still syncing. Any suggestions?
[HD2 General] Bruce Daroff:
Anyone have this issue? After using the phone for a couple of hours, I have to actually either reboot the phone or turn the data services off and then on again in order to regain the data services in the on position. It seems to turn itself off various times throught the day. Anyone else having the same problem. I am running a T Mobile HTC HD2. I can't update weather, stocks or email until I reboot the phone. HELP ME PLEASE, DRIVING ME CRAZY!
[HD2 General] anrabi4:
You should try and contact T-Mobile for the full specifications of how to set up the internet connections on your HD2. This is what I did with Vodafone, and they sent me a whole list of items to set up on my device, such as the connection name, modem, access point, name & password and full proxy settings, for both HTTP and WAP.

Also, try and go to your network settings, and somewhere there should be an Advanced tab of some sort, where you can select from Mobile Internet and My Work Network. Always use Mobile Internet, as I have had trouble with My Work Network many times before.

Sorry I couldn't help you more. =/
[HD2 General] carhigh:
I some times have problems but i dont quilify to help you since im using a unlocked hd2 and on the att network and not the default rom
[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
You have a bad combination of Rom and Radio Rom.

(yes, even the stock rom and radio rom can be a bad combination)

Solution is flashing another radio.

Question to author: You have solved the problem with the Russian firmware? And the question to the Forum: Is there currently a firmware Russian for HTC XV6850 Verizon
[Vibrant General] renegadedj:
Pet Peeves of this phone so far:

NO Music Widget for the stock music app (i checked in touchwiz, AND ADWlauncher)

NO Calendar widget for the default calendar app (the best alternative i found is either "What's Today" or "Smooth Calendar Widget" - both just not the same function as the default 2.1 calender)

I understand this is touchwiz, and the overlay has affected the music and calndar programs as well, but come on samsung, leave well enough alone.

There needs to be more control, more of a standard, to which these phones adhere to. I love android because of the customization, but some of the manufacturers are getting out of hand.

Touchwiz is actually really effing nice, but those two basic widgets should not have been touched IMO. Points off Samsung, and T-mobile...
[Vibrant General] reuthermonkey:
I don't believe the GalaxyS comes with those apps in the first place, hence the lack of widgets.
[Vibrant General] darkknight49:
the music controls are in the notification pull down for what its worth.
[Vibrant General] renegadedj:
yea... i use the app icon to start it, then control the app with the pull-down. thank you

different means to the same end. now just need to fix that the samsung music app pulls every damn sound in the universe into the list. haha
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
I find that the TouchWiz Notifications Music Player widget is far more useful. Turning it on is just as easy with an icon on the home screen.
[Vibrant General] renegadedj:
not for nothing, but i also feel that samsung could come up with a kickass widget for the music app. so the lack of one is more disappointing on a completeness of touchwiz and aesthetic level :)
[Vibrant General] lpaddikt:
I use Tunewiki widget which is pretty descent even though it uses it's own music player but you get lyrics too with internet.

Isn't it amazing how this little bugger bests some of these behemoth phones coming out? Its great that htc sees this trend and meets it while delivering the potential in selling smaller powerhouses.

The Dell streak does have potential too, just needs serious tweeks first.
[HTC Aria General] jbizz:
A friend of mine here at work has been beta testing the Streak for about 2 weeks. Hands down, the Aria is sooo much better.

The screen on the streak is horrible at feedback, and the keyboard blows.

Here's my short review of the easecase D3 Custom-Made Leather case for DELL Streak

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKqmLGolmrI
[Streak 5 Accessories] flumps:
nice. i am thinking about getting one, but the A3(i think) model. when you say snug just how snug? i noticed you didnt get a belt clip on it, how easy is it to take out of the case? do you have to pull it or does it just sit in the case?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Muo:
Very nice to see the case with a Streak actually in it, thanks for posting this review. Also I like how 'snug' you mentioned everything to be.

I personally ordered the B1 and will take some pictures/do a write up when I receive it.

.
[Streak 5 Accessories] THJahar:
Yeah I didn't want a belt clip.

As for snug, it seems to be absolutely perfect, it doesn't rattle around, but doesn't require too much effort to get it out, I have to congratulate them on getting the dimensions exactly right.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Keethos:
Nice straight forward review THJahar....was wondering though, how long did it take for it to arrive after ordering and would it be fair to say that it's snug to a point where if I had the case clipped to my belt, I may struggle to get the phone out (i.e. only easy to take out of the case with 2 hands?).

Thanks
[Streak 5 Accessories] THJahar:
Took about 7 days to arrive from their notification of shipping (coming from HK)

As for getting it out one handed it's not too bad, you have to grip it slightly firm but I'm guessing that will ease up after a week or so.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Keethos:
Cool thank dude, I'll be ordering one soon. I did e-mail them last night asking if they could make it slightly bigger so I could easily slide it in and out and they did respond saying yes....so I'll be on there tonight! Thanks again dude!

[Streak 5 General] fards:
I find it doesn't lock as quickly as my HD2 with the latest radio, but it is a lot more accurate.

cycling back home on the canal tonight it followed exactly the line of the towpath in mytracks satellite view.. that's not bad as it's pretty twisty, on the hd2 it would draw a line in the water more often than not..

[Streak 5 General] aloudermilk:
GPS Signal

I had a captivate for 3 days and had to take it back. The GPS was very sporadic. I would be driving down a straight stretch and the next I know I am being told to turn. When I looked the Cell signal was out to 2000 meters and it was telling me I was in a subdivision and was trying to tell me how to get out. I am very encouraged to hear the streak will not suffer these issues. I do hope AT&T does not cripple the unlocked version I can buy from their web site.

[Droid X Android Development] slseale:
OK so I have been using the Droid since it's release and been rooted and ran just about every rom and kernel combo there is. I have an eris which is also rooted. I got the X the first day and like all been playing with the rumors of "is root a possibility" and if so are we talking like 12 months for it? I hear the boot loader is locked just like the milestone, do to encryption. I look around and the milestone is rooted already. So what exactly am I missing here for rooting only the new X, just trying to bypass the eFuse with a valid signature?

I mainly want root to remove moto blur and other non-useful apps "imho", although, CM6 with an hdmi driver for 3rd party apps would be nice as well.

So what should I be researching for rooting the X besides, when the milestone gets root so will we approach?

thanks,

shaun
[Droid X Android Development] psychoace:
From what I've been reading is you can't hack the kernal. You can add kernel modules but you can't hack the actual kernel. That means you can't use roms that are not based off that kernal, you can't optimize the kernel, and other things that most custom roms fix. So no Froyo until Motorola releases it and no changing settings that have already been made.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sergey.povzner:
Ok, this issue has been open for a while now (Open Handset Alliance Project bug tracker). I cannot believe this hasn't been fixed in Android 2.2.

AutoLock used to work as a fix to this problem, but I don't think it works on Froyo. Are there any other apps that allow to set separate display and lock timeouts with stock Android?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sergey.povzner:
[bump] Anyone?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mrrhead:
Not sure this helps, but I can't believe it either. This is kind of emblematic of Google's attitute towards 'common' users. I've given up, my Android device is for sale...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sergey.povzner:
Well, AutoLock used to solve this problem more or less, but it stopped working in 2.2.

I've read that it is possible to set up Mobile Defense, so that you set up your lock pattern, then turn it off, but can re-enable it remotely using Mobile Defense if you lose your phone. Haven't tried this yet.

[Vibrant General] Welshy992:
Currently, I'm just using the aux port in my sony head. It has a USB port that is "ipod" ready. I connected the vibrant to it and set the usb mode to "media player" and I could play music just fine, but charging was almost nonexistent. It shows that it's charging but the battery percentage did not rise over the course of 30-45 minutes, and it was at approximately 35% when I started. I'm guessing perhaps the usb port isn't supplying enough voltage for charging purposes so I'm trying to find an alternative in the mean time that doesn't require plugging in a separate car charger and the aux audio cable. Has anyone had any luck with using a blue-tooth usb receiver in their stereo and transmit the audio from the phone that way? Just curious what other people are using for setup. Please share!

[Vibrant General] MMcCraryNJ:
I have a 2010 Ford with MS Sync installed.

Streaming bluetooth audio works flawlessly, as it did with my G1. You do need to control it on the actual phone, which is a pain because you know, you have to drive and all, but I guess that's how you would do it through a line-in as well (I have USB-in that works with my Zune so I can control my media though my steering wheel and by voice command, so I'm perhaps a bit spoiled)

But anyway, the audio will play fine, and if I get a call, the media player will pause, I can answer and talk, and when the call is ended it resumes the music.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
2G and Edge is the same radio, when your 2G is not using data, it drops to Edge to standby until you engage onto 2G, 3G, HDPA, etc

if you want it all off, then uncheck everything, and use only wifi

i suppose you did not buy a Data Plan?

if that is the case, most carriers will throw and error back to your phone, about "there's no internet conectivity" or some other related merror message

you have to call your carrier to dissable it, else if you use data, they will charge you on a per use rate, which usually is stupidly expensive.

2. I use the weather application and update it several times a day, but I miss one option that I cannot seem to find (if it exists). That is to save the locations I drive through now on my 5 week vacation. When I update, it figures out my new location and changes to this, but I want to keep more of them. Many of the places I visit don't appear in the Add Location function.

Hope you know what I mean :)

Thanks!
[HD2 General] anrabi4:
Hmm... try using m.facebook.com or 0.facebook.com (if you are a Vodafone client).

As for your second issue... I don't really understand what it is. You want your device to remember the places where you've been? If not, then please explain.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Open your webpage on the Google homepage, and change it from 'Mobile' to 'Classic', then google Facebook, and all should be well.

And if the place isn't in the Add Location function you can't add it to the Sense weather list. You'll need a 3rd party app or to use the internet to check the weather which isn't quite the same as the Sense Weather interface. You'll just have to keep using My Location I'm afraid.
[HD2 General] dbh369:
Search these threads, there is an app here somewhere that will allow you to enter arbitrary weather locations based on (I think I remember) a 4 digit code you need to look up for each spot. Sorry, I looked at it but didn't keep it.
